Dip-dye taper candles – hand-dipped, colourful, 180 mm × Ø 22 mm

Your guests are about to arrive and the table is laid. But the candles to start the evening are still missing. Dip-dye taper candles with their hand-dipped colour gradients are made for moments like this. You put them in the candle holder and light them. The table instantly looks festive, without any extra decorating. The calm, bright candlelight does the rest.

What changes for you

• Your table has a colour that nobody else has. That's because every candle is decorated by hand with coloured wax, which makes each one unique.
• You can enjoy your evening without unpleasant smells or soot marks. The highly refined paraffin wax burns low-soot, odourless and without residue.
• Your candlelight lasts a long time. With around 8 hours of burn time, one candle easily lasts a whole festive evening.
• You can rely on a calm, bright flame. The wick made of 100 % cotton gives an even burn with very little flicker.

Why these dinner candles make a difference every day

A lit taper candle changes the mood in a room straight away. The light gets softer, conversation gets quieter, and the moment feels more special. The hand-dipped colour gradients also look good when the candle isn't lit. Use them as a splash of colour on the sideboard, in a flower arrangement or on the laid table. That turns an ordinary dinner into a small occasion, with no effort at all.

Material & finish

The candles are made of highly refined paraffin wax. That's why they burn odourless, low-soot and especially bright, and leave no residue. Every taper candle is carefully decorated by hand with coloured wax. Shades and colour gradients can therefore vary from batch to batch. This isn't a flaw. It's exactly what makes every candle one of a kind. You can see and feel the clean finish as soon as you hold the candle in your hand.

How to use the dip-dye taper candles

• At dinner for two: light one candle in the middle of the table. The meal instantly feels like an occasion, not an everyday routine.
• In an Advent wreath: use taper candles instead of classic pillar candles. The wreath looks lighter and more modern, and the colour gradients pick up your Christmas decorating theme.
• In a lantern or flower arrangement: place the candle as the colourful centrepiece. Even a single candle can carry the whole arrangement.
• In a café or restaurant: put one candle on every table. Your guests stay longer because the atmosphere is right. And thanks to the odourless burn, nothing interferes with the smell of the food.
• As a gift or for a host: colourful taper candles, no two alike. A small one-of-a-kind gift that every host will be pleased with.

Good to know about dip-dye candles

The term dip-dye simply means “dip and dye”. The candle is dipped into liquid coloured wax, which creates flowing colour gradients. The technique builds on traditional candle dipping. Because every dip turns out a little differently, these candles are ideal wherever you want an individual look: on a festive dinner table, in an Advent wreath or as a personal gift.

Options & what's included

• The colour decoration differs from batch to batch. Variations in shades and colour gradients are possible and make every candle unique.
